Several restaurants in D.C. will be closed on Thursday, Feb. 16, either all day or part of the day, in support of the immigrant strike and to show how vital immigrant work is to this country.

One of the leaders of this movement is José Andrés, an acclaimed Spanish-American chef and named one of Time magazine’s “100 Most Influential People.”

While the protest is centered in D.C., other restaurants and businesses throughout the country are also taking part in this protest.
